    Abstract: A rear end section for an aircraft, having a fuselage, a v-tail, and a thruster assembly including at least one propulsion device installed to ingest and consume air forming a fuselage boundary layer, a control surface attached at the rearmost section of the rear end, and a casing covering at least part of the propulsion device such that an air inlet and an air outlet are defined between the casing and the propulsion device. The air inlet is configured to permit passage of the fuselage boundary layer towards the propulsion device. The air outlet is configured to direct the airflow exhausted from the propulsion device into the control surface, to divert the airflow and provide vectoring thrust for the aircraft.

    Abstract: An asymmetric aircraft configuration having a first and a second wing, the first wing having a span larger than the second wing. A first engine is mounted on the first wing, and a second engine mounted on the rear end of the aircraft with its centerline aligned with the aircraft longitudinal axis. The rear end of the aircraft has a T tail, and the second engine is configured to ingest and consume air forming a boundary layer during the flight. A main landing gear assembly includes a first landing gear attached to the first wing, and a second landing gear attached to an area of the fuselage close to the second wing.
